We have secured £6,100 in compensation for a lady who was injured at a hair salon, where she went to have blonde highlights in her hair.

The hairdresser used a bleaching product on her hair, however it was left on for too long.

Prior to the treatment, a strand or patch test was not offered. As a result of the negligence of the hair salon, our client endured severe hair impoverishment and extensive hair severance.

She was distraught with the aftermath, as her hair became extremely brittle and susceptible to snapping. She also suffered psychologically, as a result of her altered appearance, she became depressed.

We obtained expert evidence from a Consultant Trichologist who estimated a 41 month recovery period for our client’s hair to grow back to its previous length.

The hair salon denied liability on all counts until we issued and served court proceedings. Before the case went to court, they agreed to settle the claim at £6,100.

We have years of experience in hair claims so we can give the high standard of advice you deserve. If you, or someone you know, has been a victim to a hair injury, that was not your fault, you may be entitled to compensation. It is imperative you get expert advice as soon as possible.
